I can recall my name
But I was not the same
I fear I'd gone astray
I've almost gone insane
Sometimes I still can hear
Echoes of silent fears
But on that winter's day
You swept them all away
These were the times
When I longed for the river and I
Closed my eyes and you laid
Your hands down on me
Not just a burning sin
A candle in the wind
It was so much more
I want to thank you for
These were the times
When I longed for the river and I
Closed my eyes and you laid
Your hands down on me
I can see you, still my friend
Still so deep inside of me
These were the times
When I longed for the river and I
Closed my eyes and you laid
Your hands down on me
You filled my void, you let me fly
You broke my chains, you showed me life
You set me up, you made me true
I was back at the river with you
